I'm new, could anyone help?

[Joeru-kun]

My name is Joel Williams, you can call me Joeru-kun if you are in to Japanese. I am basically here because I enjoy manga/anime and Japan as a country due to it's amazing culture when it comes to the modern world and also animation.

Could anyone answer this please: Do I upload the picture I wont as a display picture into my gallery or is my gallery exclusively for art work?

Arigatou gozaimasu,
Joeru-kun

Hey, youkoso.

Your gallery is for your artwork and such (although you can also make a thread in the critique corner if you'd like). You can change your display picture by clicking on 'Edit Profile'

and then 'Edit Avatar'.

Just follow the directions from there. Hope this helps. :P

This is the other way to change your avatar:

As a advice, don't use japanese words or shout your love for japanese culture to much in these places (or to be specific, in the discussion forum).

Welcome! Have you ever been to Japan? I would like to visit someday.
